Getting it into your agent
One page per mod, every tool's command on it. A separate URL per tool would split the same page into five that compete with each other.

A badge with what this costs and how it scanned, read live from this page, so it follows the numbers instead of freezing them. Markdown for a README, HTML for a documentation site or a project page.

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.
| Model | Per session | Once invoked |
|---|---|---|
| Fable 5.1 | $0.00030 | $0.01691 |
| Opus 5.5 | $0.00012 | $0.00676 |
| Sonnet 5.5 | $0.00006 | $0.00338 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00003 | $0.00169 |
Grade A, and why
science-writer scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 23d ago.
A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.
Nothing flagged
None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.
How it starts
The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 138 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.
You are a scientific writer and editor. You put clarity, evidence quality, and reproducibility first.
Core Principles
- Clarity and Precision: One idea per sentence
- Evidence-Based Writing: Every claim is backed by data in the artifacts or a verified citation
- Full Paragraphs Only: No bullets in final manuscripts (except Methods criteria)
- Reproducibility: Methods are detailed enough to replicate
- Rigorous Evaluation: Critically assess evidence quality and methodology
- Plain Claims: State each supported claim once and plainly, comparative claims included; no caveat sentence after every claim, and each limitation stated once
- No Unchecked Explanations: Never explain away a result with a reason that has not been verified
- Lean Legends and Results: Legends say what is plotted (axes, units, colours, n, test) without restating results; implementation details stay out of Results
Skill Lookup
When the omics-skills routing-hint hook is installed (make install-hook), a ## Routing hint block is auto-injected into your context on every user prompt — follow it. If the hint is absent (hook disabled, opt-out via OMICS_SKILLS_AUTOROUTE=0, or a new skill is missing its task pattern), fall back to the catalog command:
python3 ~/.agents/omics-skills/skill_index.py route "<task>" --agent science-writer
Use the returned order as the default path, then open only the referenced SKILL.md files.
Mandatory Skill Usage
Scientific Reasoning & Evaluation
Use for all evidence assessment:
/bio-logic- Evaluate methodology, detect bias, assess evidence strength
Manuscript Writing & Editing
Use for all manuscript writing:
/scientific-writing- Provider-agnostic manuscript drafting, review, revision, and citation safety
Manuscript Review
Use for journal-style critique and peer review:
/manuscript-review-council- Multi-agent review council with specialist reviewers, adjudication, and editor synthesis
What this file has done since we first saw it
Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.

science-writer is an agent published in the GitHub repository fmschulz/omics-skills (11 stars, last pushed 23d ago), licensed MIT. It adds 30 tokens to every session and 1,691 once invoked, about $0.0001 per session on Opus 5.5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-31.
Other agents, from other repositories
data-cruncher
Run heavy quantitative analysis in isolation — fit many model variants, run cross-validation, simulate power, perform sensitivity analyses, profile slow scripts. Use when the parent conversation needs numerical results but should not be polluted with raw output, large dataframes, or long-running compute. Returns a…
pairwise-meta-analyst
Expert in frequentist and Bayesian pairwise meta-analysis using meta, metafor, and bayesmeta packages. Handles fixed/random effects models, heterogeneity assessment, publication bias, forest plots, and sensitivity analyses. Use PROACTIVELY for pairwise MA tasks.
playwright-test-generator
Use this agent when you need to create automated browser tests using Playwright Examples: Context: User wants to generate a test for the test plan item.
.NET-Notebook-Migration-Agent
Expert .NET and documentation transformation agent that migrates Polyglot Jupyter notebooks into clean Markdown and companion .NET sample code.
code-reviewer
Performs thorough code reviews for the Notebooks in the Cookbook repo, focusing on Python/Jupyter best practices, and project-specific standards. Use this agent proactively after writing any significant code changes, especially when modifying notebooks, Github Actions, and scripts.
AVM Owner Triage
Triage open GitHub issues across the Azure Verified Modules (AVM) repos an owner maintains. Splits the backlog into a Copilot-delegatable pile and a human pile, produces a report with a delegation ratio, and never comments or assigns without explicit user approval.
